Rachel's blue and white collection

A little of the real collection.

From Rachel's porch

I collect blue and white. I write about the South.

Ginger jars, chinoiserie plates, anything blue and white that catches my eye in a little antique shop. It's the same thing I love about writing: old things with good stories still in them.

My books live on the Georgia and South Carolina coast, in the Blue Ridge mountains, and in the small towns in between. The porch is always open.
